Britax Boulevard 70 CS Convertible Car Seat, Onyx Overview:

• Safecell technology features safecells designed to compress in a crash, significantly lowering the center of gravity and counteracting the forward rotation of the child seat which normally propels the child toward the front seat
• Click and safe snug harness indicator is an audible aid that provides extra assurance when the harness is within range of appropriate snugness
• Integrated steel bars strengthen the connection to the vehicle and reduce forward flexing of the child seat during a crash
• Energy-Absorbing Versa-Tether features a staged-release tether webbing to slow the forward movement, reducing the crash forces reaching the child, and a two-point attachment to minimize forward rotation while anchoring the top of the child seat
• True side impact protection offers an extra layer of EPP foam, keeping the head, neck and spine aligned, and deep side walls lined with EPP foam to distribute crash forces, shield from vehicle intrusion, and contain the head, neck and body

21 of 21 people found the following review helpful Quality product & my son loves it, November 28, 2011 By  iron woman - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Britax Boulevard 70 CS Convertible Car Seat, Silver Birch (Baby Product) We bought the 70 CS to replace our son's infant car seat. This seat is extremely well made and doesn't take up too much space in our Prius. I like the safety features and extra padding on the shoulder straps and across the belly. Although the cover can be removed easily, it must be hand washed and line dryed. The washing instructions are a definite negative in my view, but, not enough for me to rank the seat less than 5 stars. I am unclear on what difference (if any) there is between the new 70 CS and the old model. I'll leave other reviewers to comment on that. Overall, I'm very pleased with this car seat. My son likes it too!

Didn't know much about the convertible ones I went to the store to see them in person. Only Britax ones seemed to be sturdy and had enough cushion. I went with Britax Boulevard 70 CS; - it had more protection than Marathon (head and lower body cushions insert), - it has clip and click option (it clicks when baby is strapped safe, no need to recheck with fingers between baby and straps), Marathon and regular Boulevard don't have this option, - it doesn't have bulky wide additional support for head like Advocate CS. Basically in the order from the simple model to the most advanced one it goes: Marathon, Boulevard, Boulevard CS and Advocate CS. The Advocate has more protection, but I already have a safe car (Audi and than VW Tiguan) and didn't want to take additional space (the cars are not that huge inside). The car seat is placed behind the passenger seat and there is...

He was a long baby, and the infant carrier seat was just never comfortable for him. He would cry and cry every time we got in the car. Once we switched to the Boulevard, he was SO much happier. I drive a tiny car (a Scion xA) and the seat fits comfortably behind the passenger seat. It's so simple to install, and although it's large, I can still easily see our baby via the mirror attached to the headrest. We were hit the week before Christmas, and I'm happy to report that the baby was perfectly okay. I'm sure a lot of this is thanks to the sturdy, steel frame of the carseat, as well as the absorbing materials. I suffered whiplash and am still seeing a chiropractor for it (a month later). Our baby is now almost 11 months, 22 pounds, and 31 inches and is still riding comfortably rear-facing.
